About Us
The University of Virginia Child Development Center was established in 1991 at 180 Copeley Road to accommodate infants through pre-k. In 2011 we expanded into two centers.
180 Copeley Road - Two to Five Year Olds
Phone: 434-293-6110
Fax: 434-293-3447
408 Earhart Street - Infants and Toddlers
Phone: 434-465-2397
Both Centers are open from 6:30 am to 6:00 pm, Monday through Friday except certain holidays (see Holiday Closing Schedule). The Centers accept children of University faculty, staff, and students as well as employees of the hospital, University-affiliated foundations and contractors.
Nutritious snacks and meals are served "family style". Our buildings are free of any type of nut products. The Centers accommodate a wide range of allergies and food sensitivities.
Accreditation
The University of Virginia Child Development Centers are accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).
